    Knackered old Saracen Owners Club

    They both look like quite nice Saracens, I own a far worse one than those. I'll get a picture later.

    Muddy Fox Courier Comp neon green frame/fork/stem/tyres £25

    Not a bad frame and fork this surprisingly light and it stands out brilliantly. The paint still stands out but has faded in the sun. The paint is also fairly battered. Would build up into an excellent winter retro fix to preserve your pride and joy. Collection preferred, I will post but it will...

    Vitus 979 Road bike 54cm £110

    Re: Vitus Road bike 54cm £150 I believe it's a 979 (open to correction here), I'd guestimate it was early 1980s, bonded aluminum luged, hub spacing is old so narrow, but I've not measured it.

    Vitus 979 Road bike 54cm £110

    A tidy little 54cm Vitus bike, gears work properly but the brakes need new cables connecting up as I was using flat bars but I've put the old drops back on for sale. Clearly had things changed over time as it's a bit of random assortment of parts. But cheap and usable. £130 posted or £110...

    Diamondback Curaca

    98 sounds about right, could even be slightly newer. It won't be a Tange frame or anything like that as it's a fairly low end town shopping machine. Just Ride and enjoy it would be excellent for doing what it was designed for popping into town or the pub.

    Depends how good your hubs are, but £30 plus parts seems about right.

    help figuring out waht bike is mayve 1988 mtb german bike

    It looks a fair bit newer than 1988 to me, I'd guess at more the mid 90s. Regarding it's quality, it looks to be fitted with a fairly low end chunky crankset and rear mech so I'd say it wasn't anything particularly special. No idea what it is though sorry.

    Headset compatibility - replace threaded with threadless?

    As FluffyChicken said the frame will take it fine, but the current forks and stem would no longer be any use and would have to be replaced.
